my unparalleled way

Chapter 1508 The Dust Settles
When the setting sun in the sky stretched the shadows of the houses as far as possible, Xiancheng had calmed down again.

The previous battle seemed to have never happened at all. The city guards, the imperial guards, and the Imperial Forest Army all returned to their original positions. Not to mention any riots on the street, there was not even an official interrogation.

The imperial court issued an official document stating that Yue Lianshan, the great general of the Yue Kingdom, resigned on his own initiative due to some inconvenient reasons, and decided to leave the Yue Kingdom.Her Majesty the Queen did not seriously punish him for his crimes, and there was no other punishment other than dismissing him as a citizen, and even tried hard to keep him by his side.

But His Royal Highness Bei Wang had no intention of turning back, and a small conflict broke out between the two.

But now, Yue Lianshan no longer has anything to do with Yue Kingdom.

This official document made many Xiancheng officials and people feel mixed feelings, and for a while, no one was able to comment on it.

Some of them could actually see that the conflict between His Majesty and His Highness the King of the North was probably not as simple as it was stated in the official document, after all, the momentum at that time was like a big battle.

However, in any case, these two people are still alive after all, and the three armies of Xiancheng do not seem to have suffered any large-scale casualties.

Most importantly, Yue Kingdom will not fall into civil strife because of this, which may be considered good news.

yeah good news...

The person they have been condemning for a while has finally been 'sanctioned'.His prince is gone, and his position as a general is gone. This should be regarded as a heavy punishment, right?After all, with that person's strength, it is impossible to be imprisoned or even executed.

However, for some reason, there was no applause on the street at all because the court "acted with justice and punished the chief culprit" and because the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the people.

Many people returned home silently after reading the official documents, and they didn't make a sound, let alone laugh, for a long time.

They have every reason to cheer, isn't that what they originally wanted?The cancer of the Moon Kingdom that they have been brooding over, the source of the shady that no one can cure, has finally been eliminated. This is justice finally defeating power!
They themselves don't know why they can't be happy, why they feel so heavy.

Maybe it's just because I'm not used to it.

The person who was not used to the person who was about to become a symbol of the Moon Kingdom really suddenly had nothing to do with the Moon Kingdom.

……

Two days later, in the Xiancheng Palace, Zhou Zichuan, dressed in eunuch robes, bowed into the study.

"Your Majesty, my servant." Holding a file in both hands, he saluted the woman in the room.

As Lin Si expected, after the palace hall was turned into ruins due to the battle between him and Lian Qin, Luo Ning had to replace it with a side hall during the two days of early Chaoyue.

At this time, after the next dynasty, Zhou Zichuan came to report something to her.

Zhou Zichuan's existence is still a secret, but Yue Luoning will let him come to the front of the stage sooner or later, because this person is really useful.

But on the other hand, she didn't intend to let Zhou Zichuan stand in the hall.She would reuse Zhou Zichuan, but that eunuch costume was enough to explain her attitude towards Zhou Zichuan.

"What's the matter?" She asked without raising her head.

She still didn't put down the pen in her hand, as if the battle yesterday and the shocking scars on her face didn't exist at all.

"There has been some disturbance in the city."

"What commotion? Because of Lin Si?" Yue Luoning finally raised her attention.

"Yes...some literati took the opportunity to refute him, bluntly saying that he is the number one sinner since the founding of the Yue Kingdom, and some people asked His Majesty why he was not thrown into prison and dealt with severely. A commercial newspaper also issued a call to action against Lin Si."

"And then?" Yue Luoning asked noncommittally.

"Then some people in the city tore down the proclamation, besieged and smashed that chamber of commerce..." Zhou Zichuan took a peek at Yue Luoning, and he was not sure about Yue Luoning's attitude after hearing this.

Those common people were venting their anger on Lin Si, which meant that they still had nostalgia for Lin Si, which should be something Yue Luoning really didn't want to see, right?
"Are they complaining about Lin Si?"

"That's right..."

"Heh, what did they go long ago?" A sneer flashed in Yue Luoning's eyes.

"Your Majesty, please tell the servants and others what to do?"

After thinking for a while, Yue Luoning said expressionlessly: "Let them smash it, and withdraw the city guard."

"Ah?" Zhou Zichuan was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly understood: "Your Majesty intends to..."

"Yes, you're not too stupid after all. Some people got carried away with their dancing a while ago, and that's not good. They're not needed now, and things should be back to normal."

Zhou Zichuan was completely convinced, and he said loudly, "I understand!"

Yes, he understood, he already guessed what Yue Luoning wanted to do.

In order to fight against Lin Si, Yue Luoning secretly fueled the flames and led a "tide against Lin" in the cultural and academic circles of Yue Kingdom.Because of the acquiescence and connivance of the imperial court, celebrities, scholars, scholars and business newspapers from all walks of life in Yueguo published articles to criticize Lin Si. They almost scolded him as much as they wanted, and no one cared about him at all.

There is a saying that three people make a tiger, and the more people say it, the more times it is said, and gradually it will be taken as true by many people.So soon not only the academic circles, but even the civil society became unfavorable to Lin Si, and many common people also began to dislike Lin Si.

So far, Da Lin's calculation is more than half successful.

A large part of the reason why Lin Si had the idea of ​​retiring in the square in front of the hall the day before yesterday was because he was disappointed with the people of Yue Kingdom.It can be said that the Seven Deadly Sins played a role in the end, and Yue Luoning had achieved her goal. Otherwise, even if Lin Sihui retreated the day before yesterday, he would probably rise up to overthrow Yue Luoning for revenge after returning.

But there are always gains and losses in everything, and the same is true for defeating Lin Dachao. In the matter of bringing down Lin Si, Yue Luoning's academic circles were secretly used as a gun by Yue Luoning.But because of this, the current academic world of Yue Country has become too 'free'.

How could it be possible to criticize Lin Si every day? They would criticize and discuss many things.

In the past, the government and military that could not be discussed at all, the secrets of the royal family, government orders and measures that could not be speculated at all, and even some malicious remarks emerged endlessly during that time.

It's hard to say whether this matter is good or bad, but it's definitely not what Yue Luoning wants to see.Why can't she see that if this continues, her own rule may have problems.

At the end of the development, instead of acting according to the faces of these literati?This was something she couldn't tolerate. In her opinion, what would sour literati do other than empty talk, how could she, Yue Luoning, be influenced by others?

However, in order to defeat Lin Si, Yue Luo Ning couldn't stop this trend at all.Now it's getting worse and worse, and it can't stop at all.

Now she has no need for those business newspapers and literati for the time being, but even if she wants to 'cross the river and tear down the bridge', it is not that simple.

In the past, how could these people dare to ask the court to do something?How dare you openly accuse Her Majesty the Queen of favoritism?It's okay to discuss it privately, but dare to post it openly and spread it around?This means that when Yueshan was in power, even if he didn't beheaded, he would be sent to prison.

It's a pity that Yue Luoning had deliberately made an open-minded and tolerant image before, and he didn't seem to care. Now if he directly seizes and suppresses it, it will only cause a huge backlash, and even the common people will be dissatisfied, thinking that the court is trying to block people's mouths up.

So, it's really not easy to handle.

But Yue Luoning is Yue Luoning, she already has a better solution.

Just as she used the academic circles of the Yue Kingdom to make Lin Si an enemy, and finally involved all the people of the Yue Kingdom, this time she also found an enemy for these scholars in the academic circles.

Lin Si finally left, maybe because he really left and never came back, Yueguo has lost a giant pillar of the sky, and there is no such thing as the No.1 general of Tianshu strategy.Many people began to feel uneasy in their hearts. They even worried about the future of the Yue Kingdom, and worried that the Yue Kingdom without Lin Si would be beaten back to its original shape.

So some people started recalling him well.The consequences of this reflection were unexpected.

Just after winning a huge battle, he was forced to leave when he came back. This sounds a bit unfair, and it is a bit worthy of sympathy.Think about it carefully, that person has been fighting for the Moon Kingdom, right? He himself has never oppressed the people, and none of the people of the Moon Kingdom have ever suffered because of him, but he has been protecting them all the time.

The seven deadly sins... are they far away, aren't they?

At this time, it is actually impossible to speak ill of Lin Si, Yue Luoning himself had foreseen this from the very beginning.For this reason, after Lin Si left, she never tried to smear him and belittle him. She knew that this would disgust many people.

Even if Lin Si's influence is to be eradicated completely, one cannot rush for a while, one must take it slowly.

However, some people don't understand!

Those people had been "smug" for too long a while ago, and they were a little carried away. Beating Lin Si made them feel that they had won a brilliant victory over the powerful and evil forces. They even wanted a more relieved and hearty victory...

But I forgot that "beating the dog in the water" is not something that everyone likes to do. Frustrated people sometimes make people sympathize.In particular, Lin Si's influence among the people has not been completely eliminated. In fact, some people still worship him.

Using the common people's nostalgia and sympathy for Lin Si to attack those celebrities in the academic world and those who may start to have ulterior motives, this is the first step of Yue Luoning's plan.

The academic circles of the Yue Kingdom and the ordinary people of the Yue Kingdom gradually became antagonistic.

This fire could not be ignited originally, after all, the memory of Lin Si would not be too long or too intense, and it was not enough to form a different kind of 'war'.

However, it was different with Yue Luoning's help.

Literati and common people in Shengdou cannot be regarded as people of the same way. There are conflicts between them, and it depends on how they are provoked.In addition to the incentive of Lin Si, there are many other things that can be used. This fire will burn more and more in the end.

So now she will not stop the people from besieging those literati and business newspapers, she will still acquiesce and connive, and she may even sing praises to Lin Si when necessary.

Those literati are destined to be dissatisfied and fight back. They even dare to denounce Lin Si, and even the imperial court dare not move them, so they are still afraid of these ordinary people?They had already forgotten how much they weighed, and they would not tolerate such a provocation.

So the fight will intensify, and finally they will really become the 'enemies' of the Moon Kingdom.

If Yue Luoning cleans them up at that time, it will be in accordance with public opinion...

After thinking about all this, how could Zhou Zichuan not be convinced?Yue Luoning obviously just found out about the commotion outside, and it was obviously a bad thing, but in the blink of an eye, she already thought of how to use it to gain the greatest benefit for herself.

She was not immersed in the joy of victory in driving Lin Si away, nor was she obsessed with the anger and hatred of being hijacked and scratched by Yin Li. next step.

The scheming of Her Majesty the Queen made Zhou Zichuan faintly feel chills in his heart.

In the past two days, he had been guessing how the fight in the square ended that day, but now that he had completely extinguished his desire to explore, he wasn't even sure if Yue Luoning had seen through his mind.

"The servant knows what to do, and will not disappoint His Majesty!"
